A New Kind of Architecture Competition: Fairy Tales

Blank Space is a new online platform for architecture founded in New York City who is launching the world’s first architecture storytelling competition, Fairy Tales. Blank Space feels like architecture competitions haven’t changed much over the years and it’s time to stir the pot with something new. Fairy Tales asks participants to develop visionary proposals that “take fun seriously and are audacious enough to ignite imaginations.” Combining fairy tales with graphics, they hope to “unlock the power of architecture by improving the way that it is shared, digested, and communicated.”

The life of the submissions doesn’t stop at the conclusion of the competition. Subsequent to the competition, Blank Space is launching the inaugural issue of Blank Space Magazine. Select entries will be included in the magazine, as well as featured prominently on the Blank Space website, and published by our media partners and other outlets around the world.
